Abstract
We find that amplitude-squared squeezing of the photon field is present in a new blackbody, namely, a Kerr-nonlinear blackbody. The squeezing effect decreases as temperature T increases. The amount of the amplitude-squared squeezing in a Kerr-nonlinear blackbody is much larger than the corresponding squeezing in normal blackbody, and the degree of amplitude-squared squeezing is much larger than the amplitude squeezing for the same range of parameters in a Kerr-nonlinear blackbody.
